Our partners, an innovative, high-tech pioneer in the field of waste-to-energy are diverting thousands of tonnes of waste from landfills and turning it into renewable fuels which is allowing UK industries to tap into a sustainable energy source once taken and buried into the ground.

Over the last 25 years, available space in UK landfills has fallen by half with a total annual production of waste sitting at 250 million tonnes a year. The country as a whole is maintaining levels of waste to landfill which is, on average, 12% higher than the rest of Europe. Meanwhile, countries like Sweden and Norway are buying waste from other countries in order to turn it into solid, liquid and gas fuels totalling the power required for 400,000 homes a year.

Offering flexible terms of 2 or 4 years and up to double digit annual returns depending on the investment term.

Having already invested £2.5 million, our partner is looking to raise the balance of £10 million through a UK bond issue. First legal charge is given to investors over the assets of the company in the worst-case scenario of a default, this is comparable to the security a homeowner gives a bank in the case of a home loan.
